IS Academy for me thank you very much. I'd consider picking Freezing's as well, but I'd rather not get sliced often. Laughing

I don't understand the fascination with the schools of Haruhi, K-ON!, Lucky Star, and Amagami SS; aren't those just normal everyday high schools? What's the point? Why not go with something that does something different and cool?

I'd go with the IS academy myself for two reasons:
1) piloting an IS would be awesome.
and 2) the girl-to-guy ratio Razz

Ashford should be higher on that list. Mahora Academy (from Negima) isn't on it at all. It should be.

And why would anyone want to go to Haruhi's school? Nevermind, don't want to know the answer to that one.

None of them seem to be places many girls would like to go besides maybe the Code geass one... Personally I'd like to go to Ranma's school, it would be fun to see all the crazzy battles going on daily :]

Ashford Academy
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion

Let us be a little more realistic.
How about opting instead for the lesser-known Ashford Comprehensive School. It is where Lelouch would have found himself had he hailed from a family of standard income.
(In this alternative universe, Lelouch would have found it far more daunting to consider higher education following the decision of the Holy Empire of Britannia to cut funding towards university budgets. Lelouch would have protested on the streets of Pendragon, though this would be to no avail. Columnists of the Holy Imperial Telegraph would soon start declaring him a fool to whom the Empire does not owe a living, and would repeatedly instruct him to appreciate that the Holy Empire's money has simply run out. Am I being sufficiently subtle?)

Seriously, it may be only a three day festival, but it'll make going to Disney World seem lame in comparison. Witnessing high-power level fights in a tournament? Massive mecha attacking the entire festival and everyone gets to defend the place? YES PLEASE.

Ashford and Kita would be fun assuming I'm in the main characters' group. Other schools though, like Lucky Star? Seem pretty ordinary to me.

I always thought the Ashford/Code Geass clothes were fancy (especially Lulu's purple uniform in S2). Sign me up.

Also, IS is cool too.

dude, the school in Baka & Test would be SO much fun to attend. I'd be in F class and it would still be better than my high school.

I myself would want to go to the High School in Toradora. It looks like loads of fun and everyone is pretty much like one big family!
